I invite any reasonable observer to look at the way in which the Greens political party have approached this conflict or others. With the information that they put forward, which is misinformation, and the falsehoods that are asserted, including in that question, I think most reasonable Australians would say that the Greens political party's agenda is about raising the heat.

We on this side do not believe that seeking to make people angry is good for our country. We do not believe that trying to exploit the concerns of compassionate Australians is the decent thing to do.
